"How can this be true? Outrageous! Enke exam, even did not test the words of the saint! ”

In the same mansion as the official secretary Shangshu Zhan, a group of court officials are gathering here to depose the current government.

A few days ago, they had just signed a joint letter, asking the emperor to cancel this Enke, on the grounds that the imperial examination was a major event in a country's culture and education.

Lao Zhu scolded them back on the spot: Do you think we like to find more people to be officials? It's not that you can't wait for a lot of use, and a commercial tax is only collected for 100,000 taels, the shame of the dynasty!

We have no one available, what are we going to do if we don't open Enco? As for the examination of moral articles...... What we want is a shopkeeper who helps us calculate commercial taxes, what do those who do the test?

These court officials with ghosts in their hearts were drenched in cold sweat when they said this, and they didn't dare to say more. Even though he instigated a few stunned young men to "speak out" behind his back, he was unceremoniously beaten by the emperor and deposed and went home.

During the Hongwu period, the confidence of civil officials was not as strong as later, and they dared to provoke the emperor and take the court staff as glory. At that time, the civil officials were in power, and the eunuchs who executed in the palace did not dare to beat the civil officials to death seriously.

And the court staff during the Hongwu period, that will really be killed! First of all, it was not the eunuch who walked the court staff during the Hongwu period, but the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, who was as famous as Jinyiwei, Yulinwei, and Fujunwei.

These people all have one thing in common: they are all die-hard veterans who are loyal to the emperor! As long as the emperor gives the order, they don't care about the sophistication of the people, they will fight how they want!

Even if there are a few young ones, most of them are the sons and nephews of the Xungui family, who first came to the army to train. These people are born to be mortal enemies with their civilian officials, it would be good if they didn't secretly be ruthless, and they still expect them to release water?

Anyway, when the stunned young people were deposed and returned to their hometowns, none of them were carried out of Yingtian awake.

The emperor had clearly made up his mind, and since the way to Shangshu could not be followed, they gathered in Zhan Tong's mansion to come up with a practical solution. However, these people have mediocre abilities after all, if they talk about the means of collecting money, or the kung fu of flirting with yin legs and stumbling in the back, they have passed the test in the Yuan Court competition area in the past, and they are all capable.

But there are those who are held in the hands of the emperor, and even if they think they can brainstorm ideas, after a long discussion, they can still only be helpless.

"Alas! In the past, I waited above the court, and it was also against Huaixi...... Why is it that it has ended up in such a helpless situation now! Zhan Tong, who was temporarily the leader and the commander of the officials, lamented.

Lu Ben at the bottom hurriedly picked up a teacup and covered up his strange expression: At that time, it was Liu Bowen, the sincere uncle, who led the officials in order to prevent Huaixi from sitting big, so he called "Qingliu", so that he could fight against Huaixi. You Zhan Tong is just a scholar who doesn't know anything about ordinary affairs, so you can't be helpless?

"I only hate that Han Gong, who actually deceived us and others, and let me wait to blame Your Majesty, and he also did the deputy examination of this scientific examination......"

An official gritted his teeth. Everything Li Shanchang did to them has now turned into a sinister intention of "using deception to calculate their clear stream". After all, Lao Li was the leader of the Huaixi lineage, the sworn enemy of Qingliu in the past, and he was able to use such a strategy, and he also very much echoed his image of Li Shanchang's "first civil servant of the founding of the country".

Not to mention, the book "Please Establish a Tax Department to Levy Business Taxes" was dedicated to His Majesty by Li Shanchang. First let His Majesty be angry because of the low commercial tax, then push the boat down the river to present the "Tax Secret", and finally in the name of forming the Tax Department, invite them as stepping stones to the Holy Heaven.

Poisonous, too poisonous!

A group of people didn't know how many times it was today, and they began to grit their teeth and criticize Li Shanchang. I completely forgot that it was because I was too picky, I only paid a tax of 100,000 taels, and I was reluctant to give more blood, which made Li Shanchang's plan fail and the emperor was furious.

"For the sake of today's plan, only by instigating the scholars and not going to take the tax enke of Nalaoshzi can we get rid of this difficulty." Zhan Tong took a deep breath and seemed to have made up his mind. "After the princes go back, they should also call on me to clean up the source."

"I, the children of the sages, will never recognize this Enko! Don't compare the articles of the sages, only test the strange skills and ingenuity, if such a person with no talent and no virtue can also stand in the court with me, where is the style of Si Wen? Where is the national dynasty outline? ”

"Anyone who participates in this subject is an enemy of Confucianism! This is not a matter of government affairs, but a matter of our Confucian legal system! But all my Confucian children need to resist this subject! ”

"Those who dare to participate in this subject will be abandoned by heaven and earth! The saint forsakes it! Children and grandchildren should be scolded by all generations, and they will never be able to turn over! ”

Zhan Tong's face was hideous, and what he said was ten times more vicious than the most terrible curse. But the eyes of the other court officials present gradually lit up: Yes! If no one dares to take the exam, won't Enko exist in name only this time?

Enko can't do it himself, and it's no wonder that Your Majesty needs to wait!

So this group of embarrassed court officials should be scattered. They went back one after another to call friends, write rumors, and quote articles, which were bound to completely ruin Enko's reputation this time. Soon, there were voices among the people that smeared Enke: This Enke does not respect the sages and sages, and the ancestors are lawless, and they are doing things like taxation.

Where is this taking a taxi, it is clearly recruiting cool officials!

If any friend dares to participate in this kind of Enke, it will be a deep shame for Shilin to cut off his robe and break his righteousness with our fellow Shilin!

The spread of words soon became more and more outrageous, and soon not only Shilin, but also the people also appeared various rumors: that this exam offended the immortals and hurt Tianhe, and even if he could pass the exam, the whole family would die, and he would not live for half a year.

What's more, it is said that this exam is a trap deliberately set by Lao Zhu, that is, to wipe out all the scum in the world who have no deeds and are not virtuous and greedy for official positions. Once he was admitted, the emperor would immediately change his face, follow the example of Qin Shi Huang who burned books and pit Confucianism, and buried all the scholars alive.

After all, how can the requirements for the imperial examination be so low and so easy? Those who can be admitted to the imperial examination are all Wenqu stars in the sky! Since it is the selection of Wenqu stars in the sky, how can the requirements be so low, even rough men without fame can sign up.

The rumors became more and more outrageous, and the booth that Guozi Jian signed up for was unexpectedly unpopular for several days. Or one or two literati who passed by were moved in their hearts, but they were also stopped and pulled away by their companions, and they did not let him do such a depraved thing.

There are even those who signed up a few days ago, because of the terrible words of people these days, and they have been under great pressure, and they came to ask if they could cancel their registrations.

An Enke actually caused a storm in Da Ming Shilin, and it was about to become a joke.

The strange thing is that the Yamen Guozijian who is in charge of this matter has not reacted at all.
